I don't see any mention of hash in the SRFI. I am missing
something?
this is somewhat tangential; i am not necessarily talking of
hashing, but more cryptographic functions shipped with Guile as a
whole.
if Guile is going to ship with a cryptographic hash function, what
about other cryptographic functions? Are we satisfied with the
RNG interfaces provided in core and SRFI 27? whether they RNGs
provided are cryptographically secure does not seem to be
documented in the manual, at least not explicitly.
